do we have to install MSDEPLOY on the remote server to use it as a Source/Destination.

Following is the detailed error I receive :

Error: The AppPoolNotFound dependency check found the AppPool '7-8' to be in us
e by the source data but not defined in source data or on the destination machin
e. Applications referencing this app pool will have configuration issues.

when i run:

---------------------

C:\Program Files\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy>msdeploy -verb:sync -source:manifest=7
-8.xml,computername=\\server-002 -dest:manifest=7-10.xml,computername=\\webdev-0
02 -whatif -enableLink:AppPoolExtension -debug -enableLink:ContentExtension > ms
deploysync.log

Does Server-002 require a MSDEPLOY install?

You can also try to enable the appPool extension on your sync:

-enableLink:AppPoolExtension

Found the problem, The AppFriendlyName for that website was saying "Default Application", it needs to be the same name as the appPool Name it works.

thanks guys, hope this solution helps for others using the tool.

Sundeep.

Also, should I need to install the web deployment tool on the remote machine & start the Microsoft Web Deployment Service before I initiate the copy?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have also done a dependency check for appPool that I want to copy, here are the dependencies on it.

C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy>msdeploy -verb:getDependencies -
source:metakey=lm/w3svc/1378685816,computername=\\server-002
<dependencyInfo>
<dependencies>
    <dependency name="AnonymousAuthentication" />
    <dependency name="WindowsAuthentication" />
</dependencies>
<apppoolsInUse>
    <apppoolInUse name="7-8" definitionIncluded="False" />
</apppoolsInUse>
<isapis>
    <isapi dll="C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\httpodbc.dll" enabled="False" />
</isapis>
</dependencyInfo>
